Sheila Nevins MTV

Sheila is currently the head of the MTV Documentary Films division of MTV Studios. Her first three films for MTV are “St. Louis Superman,” “Gay Chorus Deep South” and “17 Blocks.” During a conversation Tuesday with Thom Powers, artistic director of DOC NYC, she revealed several new projects she is developing for 2020.

One documentary is by Alexandra Pelosi with the working title, “America on Selfies.” Pelosi, who previously directed the documentary “Journeys With George,” among others for HBO, is traveling cross-country and taking the temperature of America, visiting such places as monuments; where people were shot to death; a gun store, and a flower store. “She’s an old-time filmmaker in a young woman’s body,” said Nevins.

At HBO, Nevins was doing 40 documentaries a year, and she’d like to do 20 at MTV, although she doesn’t have the money for that. “I have a feeling if I can make these work, and they can energize the population to see MTV in a more serious way, but not necessarily in a boring way, because boring is awful than maybe I’ll get more money,” she said.

Chris McCarthy, president of MTV, VH1, CMT, and Logo Media, said Nevins’ documentaries at HBO had a big influence on him personally as a kid and wanted to hire her. “I actually got choked up by this 44-year-old man who wanted me for things that I had done, that nobody seemed to want me for,” she said.
